Canonical robot record
Overview
GoFa is ABB's family of collaborative robots engineered for safe, high-performance automation in shared workspaces. Unlike traditional industrial robots, GoFa is built to operate without cages or barriers, allowing it to work directly alongside human operators. The family spans several payload and reach options to suit applications ranging from light assembly to higher-payload material handling.
Safety is central to the design. Each model integrates torque sensors across all of its joints, supporting power- and force-limiting behaviour and ABB's certified SafeMove safety functions. Intelligent sensing in every joint allows the robot to detect unexpected contact and bring the arm to a stop within milliseconds, reducing the risk of injury to nearby workers.
ABB emphasizes ease of deployment, with programming handled through lead-through motion, Wizard easy programming and the FlexPendant interface. This is intended to let first-time users and smaller operations adopt automation without specialist robotics expertise, across sectors such as electronics, healthcare, consumer goods, logistics and food and beverage.
RoboZaps maintains this record as part of its canonical robotics database. Specs are source-verified where linked; the record compares public facts across manufacturers rather than representing a single robot maker.
